Deep clean. Less residue.
A professional alternative to carpet shampooing that lifts embedded dirt without leaving sticky detergent behind.
When you book carpet shampooing with us, we use hot water extraction suited to your carpet’s fibre and condition. We inspect the carpet, discuss stains and odours, and confirm the scope before cleaning begins.
Carpet Shampooing
Traditional carpet shampooing brushes foaming detergent into the pile. It can brighten the surface, but detergent left in the fibres becomes sticky and attracts new dirt, so carpets can look grubby again sooner. Hot water extraction rinses the carpet and pulls the loosened soil and most of the moisture straight back out.
Supermarket and hardware hire machines have far less suction and heat than truck-mounted or professional portable equipment. That usually means wetter carpets, longer drying and more residue left behind. We bring the equipment, solutions and experience to suit your carpet.
Tell us about drink spills, food marks, pet accidents and products you have already tried. Some marks need a separate treatment or a closer look at the backing and underlay. We explain what can realistically be improved before extra work.
Whether it is a lived-in family home, an empty rental before inspection or a working office, explain the rooms, furniture and access. We plan the clean around your schedule, including end of lease carpet cleaning.
Plan with confidence
List the carpeted rooms, stairs, hallways and landings you want cleaned. A bedroom count alone can miss larger living areas, so photos and approximate sizes help us prepare an accurate quote.
Move loose items, breakables and toys from the floor. Discuss larger furniture beforehand rather than assuming it will be moved. For apartments, tell us about parking, floor level, lift access and building rules.
Allow time for the carpet to dry after cleaning. Keep children and pets off damp areas, keep air moving where you can and follow the technician’s advice before replacing furniture and rugs.
Standard carpet cleaning starts from $45 per room with a $135 minimum callout. Room size, soiling, stairs, access and specialist treatments can change the total. See our Brisbane carpet cleaning prices for more detail.
Save 10% on carpet cleaning bookings over $250, and get 50% off pest control when you book it with carpet cleaning. Conditions apply.
Ventilate where practical and follow the drying estimate given for your property. Resume vacuuming once the carpet is dry and deal with new spills promptly.

When people ask for carpet shampooing, we provide a professional deep clean using hot water extraction. Older rotary shampoo methods can leave sticky detergent in the pile, which attracts dirt again. Extraction rinses the fibres and removes the loosened soil and moisture, so less residue stays behind.
Not quite. Traditional shampooing works foaming detergent into the carpet with a brush. Steam cleaning, or hot water extraction, applies hot water and a suitable solution, then extracts it straight back out. Most people searching for carpet shampooing simply want a thorough professional clean, which is what extraction delivers.
A hire machine can cost less up front, but you also pay for detergent, transport and your own time. Hire machines usually have weaker suction, so carpets stay wetter for longer and more residue can remain. A professional clean starts from $45 per room with a $135 minimum callout.
Our standard carpet cleaning starts from $45 per room with a $135 minimum callout. Room sizes, stairs, heavy soiling and extra treatments such as stain or pet urine treatment can change the total. Tell us the rooms and any problem areas so the quote reflects the agreed work.
Drying time depends on the fibre, carpet thickness, airflow, weather and the level of soiling. Extraction removes much of the moisture during the clean, so carpets generally dry faster than after a shampoo with a hire machine. Your technician will give an estimate for your rooms.
Yes, ask about targeted stain and pet urine treatment when you book. Results depend on what caused the mark, how long it has been there and whether it has reached the underlay. We explain likely outcomes before any additional treatment.
